Forging a new era in the electrical industry Legrand introduces 'Arteor' - a broad new range of more than 600 conventional and automated products. Spanning from 240V mechanical and unique micropush switches to innovative glass touch plates, wireless and fully networked control systems, Arteor is the largest single range available in Australia and New Zealand today.
Switches
From the stunning Arteor collection, choose from 6 different switch styles including traditional Australian style rockers, electronic push-buttons, micropush, and capacitive touch plates.
International rocker switches are available in square and round formats with coverplates available in 17 luxurious finishes including mirror black, woven metal and Galuchat – a precious stingray leather.
Developed by design teams in Europe and Australia, the design of Arteor echoes that of hi-tech objects increasingly found in homes such as flat screen TVs, computers and sound systems.
For wireless micropush switches and the sleek capacitive touch plate switches, see the Home Automation, ZigBee section.
Choose from traditional rotary style dimmers or the sleek electronic push-button model.
The Rotary dimmers are available in both leading and trailing edge and are 400VA.
The electronic push-button 450VA model is Universal so it can be used with both wirewound and electronic transformers. A secondary ‘slave’ control mechanism is available to enable multi-way switching and dimming.
Coverplates are available in 17 luxurious finishes including mirror black, woven metal and Galuchat, a precious stingray leather. Dimmer mechanisms are available in white and magnesium.
- 10A single and double switched - 10A double auto-switched - 10A, 15A and round earth single auto-switched models
Coverplates are available in 17 luxurious finishes including mirror black, woven metal and Galuchat, a precious stingray leather. Powerpoint mechanisms are available in white and magnesium.
Auto-switched sockets available late 2010. Contact Customer Service for details.
Proving comprehensive, the Arteor collection offers the following functions:
- TV sockets for free-to-air and Pay TV - Telephone sockets – RJ11 and RJ12 - Data sockets – Cat 6, Cat 5E - WiFi access points - USB sockets - Loudspeaker sockets - XLR sockets - RCA sockets - HDMI sockets - S Video sockets - HD15 sockets
With a refined aesthetic, the Arteor internal and external audio and video door entry system entrance panels have been crafted from quality materials resulting in beautiful user interfaces which are ideal for prestige projects. Systems are available to control up to 10,000 premises within a 20km zone (with an IP backbone) and the 2 wire technology ensures they are easy to install and manage.
Recognised worldwide, ZigBee protocol was developed by an alliance of many international players. This radio transmission protocol is based on the IEEE 802.15.4 wireless personal area network standard. With no special wiring required, it’s the ideal choice when updating conventional installations, extending an existing automation installation, or for very simple applications (eg. lighting control). ZigBee solutions include the control of lighting, shutters, and scenarios.
ZigBee offers two forms of installation. In the first form, a wall mounted (and wired) switch acts as the actuator and receives signals from a battery powered transmitter. In the second form, the actuator is controller that is mounted in the ceiling. It also receives signals from battery operated transmitters. This second form is excellent for brick and besser block homes. Click here to see a diagram.
Zigbee and SCS technology can be mixed for a flexible solution.
The SCS BUS system is based on a 2-wire BUS working on a private SCS protocol. It’s ideal for new installations and can be integrated with third party solutions, such as DALI and KNX, through dedicated gateways. Applications include: lighting control, scenario control, roller shutter control, sound distribution and temperature control.
The SCS Bus system is very easy to install. The system is composed of actuators and control devices. Actuators controlling loads are connected to the BUS (a twisted pair cable) and to the power line. They are DIN module devices centralised on the electrical panel board. Control devices transmit information to actuators through the BUS line. Devices can be configured using physical configurators or via a computer. Interoperability between systems and third party home automation systems can be achieved through OpenWebNet protocol.
